Yes. Took me a while to make sure that it is not a bug in the VirtualBox I am using, and not a bug in the handling of snapshots that I accumulated. Every Factory image upgraded yesterday or the day before ceased to work for me, and the current images out there fail in the same way. They all stop with a black screen at the time where the kernel should be loading (or starting to be loaded maybe). I noticed that mkinitrd includes about 87 modules into the initial ramdisk, don't know if it could be related. I later was able to boot the system with an 11.1 kernel. (For some reason, this is my only system where I _not_ had configured zypper to keep kernels... how stupid from me...)
